For Sale: Tanglewood TW73 NS parlor - SOLD

[MichaelD23]

I'm offering my living room guitar, a Tanglewood TW73 NS Parlor, an outstanding vintage-styled 12-fret from the UK's Tanglewood Sundance series. It's built with a solid cedar top and a solid mahogany back. The beautiful, "soft V" mahogany neck is topped with a tightly grained rosewood fretboard and the guitar's tone is delightfully resonant and balanced. Tanglewood calls this a Parlor but it's a really closer in size to some 0 and 00 models.

The solid cedar top on this example has exceptionally tight and straight grain, essential in producing a lightweight, and yet stiff soundboard. The solid mahogany back is ribboned and bookmatched and looks great through the guitar's thin, natural satin finish. The TW73 also features a traditional diamond volute, adding strength to what is every guitar's weakest point.

This guitar's nut and saddle are genuine bone, the saddle fully compensated. resulting in a guitar with excellent intonation in all registers. The 5-ply top binding and rosette are perfectly executed and an inspection of this guitar's interior reveals a tidy space, free of glue squeeze-out.

This guitar would be an excellent choice as a songwriter's instrument or anyone wanting a very articulate and precise sound. The combination of solid cedar and a solid mahogany back combine to produce a sound that is crisp, woody, and surprisingly loud. 12-fret guitar construction requires moving the bridge a little further into the widest part of the lower bout, resulting in more string energy being transferred to the soundboard.

This warm, woody companion has been SOLD shipped CONUS, PPFF. Don't have a case (didn't come with one) but will throw in a good quality Bedell gig bag N/C.

This Tanglewood will fool you. Though it's made overseas and quite inexpensive, it has a sweet and surprisingly articulate voice, as well as being easy as heck to play. Check it out!

Wild Wednesday bump for ya.

I have the exact same guitar that sits on a stand in my office. It's a great "go to" guitar to noodle around. Tanglewood's are extremely well built and have amazing tone and playability. And they look really nice too. Someone should snag this!

Christmas Eve bump

Bumpin' up this nice lil' Tanglewood. Interesting that they call it a Parlor yet it's much bigger than my Larrivee P-03. The TW73 isn't a heckuva lot smaller than the Gibson LG2 I have for sale.

Grab this before somebody else does... It'll surprise you!
